She is introduced as a shy Japanese girl in middle school at the beginning of the show

After receiving an e-mail from Chisa Yomoda who had committed suicide, Lain discovers the virtual world of The Wired. Throughout the series, Lain is subjected to hallucinations by the Knights in order to make her lose her sense of self and attempt to find solace in the Wired, in order to fulfill the Knights' prophecy of the arrival of the goddess of the Wired.

Lain appears to be a 14-year-old girl and stands at a shorter height than most of the characters in the show. She has pale skin, brown eyes and brown hair. Her hair is short, left slightly above the shoulders and a long lock of hair on the left side of her face. She wears a yellow hair-clip throughout the show. The hair-clip is 'X' shaped and wraps the entire lock of hair securely. Throughout the show, Lain could be seen in her school uniform, which consists of a grey blazer, with a blouse and a red tie underneath, a green skirt and white indoor shoes accompanied by black socks. When she is not in her school uniform, she either wears her pyjamas, which are stylized to look like a bear or plain clothes. Some characters in the Cyberia club have also mentioned that she dresses like 'an innocent schoolgirl'.

Lain is quiet and doesn't talk much, which leads to her being a bit of a social outcast. Her eyes are soft and naive and her posture is slumped depicting her introverted personality. She often hallucinates and sees things that aren’t real. At one point she thinks that steam is coming out of her hands, during an interview director Chiaki J. Konaka said that this means that she's mentally ill. Lain is mentally ill.
